How these figures are built

  • Figures as reported in Walmart’s annual reports (Form 10-K), in US dollars, read from the SEC’s XBRL data. When a later report restates a year, the latest filed figure is shown.
  • Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditure (purchases of property and equipment), computed by InvestIQ. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Compound annual growth rate: between the first and the last year of the table.
  • Earnings per share are given for the latest fiscal year only: the SEC keeps each year as first filed, before any later stock split.
  • Data extracted on 7 November 2026, updated after each annual report.
